  1. That's great congrats! Do you exercise?
  2. Just had surgery the 23rd. Hit 10,000 steps a day on day 10. It's more the energy to do more. I really don't have anything left after that. I was fairly active before so I really am looking forward to doctors giving me the green light.
  3. Congrats!!!!! I'm going to embrace triathlons too !
  4. I only had surgery Monday and I am waking up almost every 2 hrs at night and then fully at 4am. Can't explain why. I used to sleep on my stomach so I keep thinking that it's just even odd to sleep on my back. I just go for a walk at 4am outside and then usually I can bang out another 2hrs sleep when back.
  5. So you had a placebo surgery lol. Kidding! I had surgery July 23rd and only yesterday reached 800 ml of liquids. Good for you....sounds like a unicorn stomach!
  6. Got it! I have Yogurt as a snack and cottage cheese on week 4 yet oatmeal right away. But the oatmeal is blended and watered down with almond milk so it's like a soup. It's so strange to read all the different courses doctors have asked us to follow :).
  7. Just curious...what did they tell you to eat then for breakfast if not oatmeal?
  8. I signed up for a 6 month post surgery program with nurses and nutrtionists. They gave me a bluetooth scale, fitbit, and online tracker. We are going to weigh once a week. They said it's 100% normal to not lose a lot of weight right after surgery for some people so don't worry
  9. I had my surgery Monday and the regrets happened right away. i totally get it. For me, it was thinking what did I just do to my body, the pain was intolerable. Only on day 3 out (yesterday) did I start to feel better and move around a lot more. Today, day 4 out of surgery I am doing about 3700 steps a day, pain is much better, consuming my liquids and clear foods. Stay strong and move and get those fluids in you.
